Saturday Night at Café Red, the frenchest chain restaurant in town, with plastic onions, checked tablecloths and rustic provencal paraphernalia to prove it. But this is a night of change, of fresh ideas – visiting Celebrity Chef Extraordinaire Roly Ryan is in the kitchen whisking up trouble. How can he know his diners havealso brought their own unusual ingredients to the table?

An evening of love, awkwardness, danger and mime. This tasty black comedy will surprise and delight. Bon Appetit!
